Hey.
I have been searching all over the web and cannot seem to root my Magic. I have installed Windows XP now so some software and processes will work.
I have:
SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0007 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.19.26I
Is there ANY way i can root? I am gutted that I have been looking all yesterday for a root and a keep on failing.
Thanks in advance everyone.
I have exactly the same phone/spec which I managed to root/flash CyanogenMod successfully.
I followed the following procedure to flush the "recovery" image and then you can put any ROM you like...
Google: "how to: root the magic in one click" from the Unlockr
You don't need to flash the SPL but if you do then the 1.33.2004 worked fine for me.
Hope this helps.
didnt work for me.
Anyway, I am going to send the 32B Vodafone HTC Magic back for a refund (YEAAAAH!!!) to buy a factory unlocked 32A HTC Magic!
but you need 1.5 and i am on 1.6 and have a perfect SPL

Vodafone UK Magic with 1.6 Donut running at present
I have read the XDA sapphire hacking guide and also some other guides but i am totally confused. According to some guides, i need to first downgrade to 1.5, root it, backup and put new rom. Since new roms have root enabled do i need to downgrade and root it?
I am planning on using:

dwang's rom
Can someone please tell me the steps involved and i will research the steps and hopefully put hero rom on my phone.
thanks
Dwangs rom is a stock 1.6 android rom, not hero.
Google for the 'one click' method, seems to be the easiest way. Then follow this guide if it's your first time:

Hi,
1. I wanted to root my HTC Magic and I have visited many websites and even watched some videos on how to do it. But still I don't get it. So I thought maybe anyone here can help me with it. I am currently on version 1.5 (Cupcake) and I wanted 2.1 on my phone. So I have been wondering which ROM is the latest and most stable currently?
2. Let's say, I have succeeded in rooting my phone and then I wanted to unroot it back, what do I need? Procedures?

First of all you must insatll new SPL to do nandroid backup of old 1.5 system, then root it and then if you dont like it just do recovery. Here is the gude for rooting your phone wiki.cyanogenmod.com

hello all
i intend to upgrade my mt3g from 1.6 to cm6 soon. i am following this guide: wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Upgrading_from_CyanogenMod_4.2_to_CyanogenMod_5/6
and i have this phone:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP30000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.23.02
its a t-mobile mytouch3g.
i have followed all the steps in the guide and stopped at the cm6 install.
my question is: it says i dont need to upgrade my radio. i have no idea how old the guide is and i want to verify before i take the final step that this is still valid.
my other question is: if i need to upgrade anything else before i go for the big upgrade.
Thanks

Hello all, I'm not exactly a noob but much like the guy above I'm in need of some DIRE assistance. Here are my specs:

My problems are many, but basically I'm hoping this thing isn't bricked. The recovery menu is gone, it had CWM but somehow that was deleted. I can get into HBOOT and fastboot, but neither are doing me any good in terms of trying to re-flash the recovery, and I'm almost out of options. I keep looking for SAPPIMG downloads, I have the goldcard and all, but nothing is working. I'm trying to flash one now, a stock 1.5 sappimg, but it keeps getting stuck right as it's trying to flash a new radio. Does anyone have any suggestions, any at all? I can tell you what I've tried if necessary.

I manage to root my phone by trial and error with a combination of three applications:
Superoneclick

I don't remember which one and what version but they help me. I suggest to try all.

I finally got it.. learned alot .. then i had to reroot it cause i restored tmous and during the process flashed the wrong eng spl it powers on but no fast boot or recovery. I guess jtag is the only option.. sad part is its my girlfriends from
Sad to hear that. These devices are in big problems when spl and radio don't matches the originals.
Good lock on jtag, sorry I can't help you in that.
